Midland painted turtles (Chrysemys picta marginata) basking on log in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Ohio, USA. These turtles are found throughout much of the Midwest and Great Lakes regions, and are particularly fond of basking. Aggressive behavior while basking is common among some species of turtles as they compete for space. In this scene, the centremost turtle threatens other turtles causing one to quickly retract its head. | |
